Members gtrwiz Posted March 8, 2011 Members Share Posted March 8, 2011 My kids have been watching this show on Nick Jr. called Bubble Guppies (kinda ghey, I know) that has these incredibly catchy, and familiar sounding, songs. I looked up the music and found that Adam Schlesinger from FoW is one of the writers. here's one: [video=youtube;0o7I_jL4eVM] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mlabbee Posted March 8, 2011 Members Share Posted March 8, 2011 They Might Be Giants has made a small cottage industry out of doing kid's music and theme songs for TV shows (like the theme for Malcolm in the Middle and The Daily Show). Their kid's music albums have saved me from having to listen to Raffi . . . . they're actually pretty bearable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Yarbicus Posted March 8, 2011 Members Share Posted March 8, 2011 My daughter is obsessed with Bubble Guppies! They are starting to drive me a little batty. I prefer the Backyardigans. Seriously, though, kids have access to shows with AMAZING music these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Preacher Posted March 8, 2011 Members Share Posted March 8, 2011 That thing you do is better. Don't get me wrong, I like that song - but this one takes more melodic chances (for what it is, anyway). There are more things that I didn't see coming but like in this one. I would buy it.

That first change before it hits the more Schlesingery peak, where the vocals kind of intimate it before the guitar kicks in was unexpected - and I dig it. Yes, I must've listened to it about 10 times yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
